HOMEMADE CHICAGO STYLE DEEP DISH PIZZA

By latso October 14, 2023

Ingredients:

For the Crust:

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornmeal
1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
3/4 cup warm water (110°F)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp salt

For the Filling:

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 lb Italian sausage or your choice of toppings (e.g., bell peppers, onions, mushrooms)
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Olive oil (for brushing)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:

In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the flour, cornmeal, vegetable oil, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until it’s smooth.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

2. Prepare the Filling:

While the dough is rising, you can prepare the sauce and toppings.
In a saucepan, heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for a minute until fragrant.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the sauce thickens.
In another pan, cook the Italian sausage or other toppings until they are cooked through. Drain any excess grease.

3. Assemble the Pizza:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to form a large circle or rectangle, depending on your baking pan.
Grease a deep-dish pizza pan or a cast-iron skillet and place the dough in it, pressing it up the sides.
Layer the mozzarella cheese evenly on the bottom of the crust.
Add the cooked toppings (Italian sausage or your choice of toppings).
Pour the tomato sauce over the toppings.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.

4. Bake:

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned on top.

5. Serve:

Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Chicago-style deep-dish pizza is best enjoyed hot and fresh!

Feel free to customize your deep-dish pizza with your favorite toppings and cheeses. Enjoy your homemade Chicago-style deep-dish pizza!
